Not that this helps, but I have been using the Skratch drink for about 6 months and the stuff really helps, especially reducing the feeling of tired legs. I find my recovery is so much faster and better after a strong effort. That said see if you can buy a whole lot of the stuff to reduce the price per pound. Maybe find some local friends or shop that wants to go in the purchase.

Just to be the voice of scepticism... no ingredient listing and dubious claims such as, "...Typical sports drinks have too many calories and not enough electrolytes for use as an everyday rehydration drink...", which makes me think that you'd be better spending your money on water, rather than snake oil in powder form.

FYI, up until now I just drank water and only during competition I used some kind of isotonic sportsdrink. After drinking these sportsdrinks I always had a lot of slime in my throath. I therefore hope that the complete absence of artificial-substances will elaminate this problem.

Skratch is a good product. I have had problems with many of the 'sports drinks' causing me significant problems while on the bike. I tolerate the Skratch unlike many others. Dr. Lim is an integrative physiologist - he studied exercise physiology, nutrition and physiology. His logic is sound.

Skratch did have a discount code for international orders a while ago. Would probably be worth asking if that still exists.

Tapeworm, IIRC they have two different drinks, you are referring to the out of workout one, right? While I'd not disagree with water, it's a matter of fact that some people drink recovery drinks, and not because they really absolutely need it, but because it's a rewarad of going out there and a routine that keeps the training going. Feeling more "professional" will help greatly with consistent training, in my experience.

Offering one with less calories is only logical.
